Please see a summary below of my 1968 911T and works completed: Short wheel base. Bodywork undertaken, whilst it looked good prior to restoration, some replacement panels were necessary (Porsche panels fitted, not repaired). Slate grey repaint.

I am probably stating the obvious - even if you recover the helicoil, be sure to remove any remnants that may have fallen within the cylinder if not, the problem will be more than a stripped thread.

It would appear to be oil from the case somewhere behind the fan. Engine is now coming back out. Rather than stripping t...

Thinking of going this year to help decide what colour to paint the car. Strange question but are dogs allowed? Also what sort of time does it wind down, trying to decide if I can do it in a day.

I haven't driven my Porsche this year, I do however recall a whine in one of the gears albeit slight.
